obama's class warfare seems to have convinced "Americans" that if he raises taxes on the rich he can reduce the deficit without any spending cuts on anything they want. So it's no wonder they don't like these nasty budgets that actually cut things.

Why the scare quotes around "Americans"?

Got to love the democratic brain washing operation. Taking more money from more people hurts the economy but taking more money from less rich people does not hurt the economy.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Taking money = Taking money because .... Money = Money.

$100 million from rich people = $100 million from middle class people.

It's the same $100 million not being spent that could be spent.


You save money by spending less ... you cut your budget = saving.

I say ___% cut across the board all programs.

I say ___% increase in revenue across the board everyone earning over $50K.

Or fiscal cliff ... which is what we need ... a harsh slap across the dome of American politicians.

As for those in the thread who think a more vibrant economy will produce more taxable income to payoff our deficit ... ... they will find ways to spend it - they always have and always will until we are broken.

We are a wealthy nation, but our gov't has spent as if we're 3 times as wealthy as we truly are.

Like B5 posted, we have a Euro-style gov't with American style tax structure.

So we need to make our minds...do we want to be like Europe or do we want less government?

I have no desire for a European style government myself.
